"General Hospital" actor Rick Hearst is sharing a glimpse into his second job when he’s not working in Hollywood.

"About to head back in a couple of days. Going to get on a plane. I’m in Jersey, currently, New Jersey where I live. I just kind of wanted to show folks what New Jersey looks like."
The actor continued to explain how visitors may misinterpret New Jersey for mostly being industrial but shared that there is more to the Garden State than what travelers see outside of Newark International Airport.
"I also happen to be a real estate agent here. I love helping people find homes here, sell their homes here. It’s really a great lifestyle out here."
